Chapter 195 There is no 1 who can fight, this official is ashamed to be with you!
That night, an invitation letter with a special symbol was passed into the Lin Mansion.
Lin Beifan opened it and smiled: "Now that I'm here, why did you go earlier?"
This invitation letter is from Dayan. Although there is no special signature, 80% of it is from the third prince of Dayan.
It must be because I lost in a hurry today, so I had to contact him.
"It's not easy to be greedy for some money. You don't know how to send money to me if you don't get shit out of you!"
Lin Beifan accepted the invitation and went out happily.
When I came to a restaurant, I entered a relatively secret room, and I saw the initiator of the invitation letter, and it really was the third prince Yan Xinghe from Dayan.
"It turned out to be His Royal Highness the Third Prince!" Lin Beifan cupped his hands and smiled.
"Lin Jijiu, I have been looking forward to it for a long time! I have long heard that you are erudite and talented, and your ability is outstanding. Today's performance is even more impressive to this palace! Therefore, I specially invite you to come over today!" The third prince smiled.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness, I am ashamed! I don't know what is the matter with His Highness?" Lin Beifan asked.
"This... let's drink and eat food first, and then talk about it after drinking!"
"Alright!" Lin Beifan nodded.
After eating some small dishes and drinking some small wine, Lin Beifan asked again: "His Royal Highness, the third prince, what do you mean when you come to me? Please tell me directly, the battle between Yan and Wu will continue tomorrow, I can't stay for long, I have to go back to rest. Prepare for battle!"
"This...this...cough..." The third prince was shy and hesitant.
After all, he still has to face, it is still very embarrassing for him to say these things.
The old minister next to him saw it, took the words of the third prince, raised his glass and said with a smile: "Lin Jijiu, this is what it looks like! This time, His Highness led a team to Dawu to participate in the battle of Yanwu, which was entrusted by His Majesty and the people of Dayan. High hopes!"
"If the 393 Yanwu battle is lost, it will be difficult to explain it when you go back. So I hope you can release the water properly during the game, so that we can win by luck. This is a little bit of our care, please accept it with a smile!"
Saying that, he handed over an exquisite small box.
Lin Beifan opened it and saw a total of 300,000 taels of silver.
"I also invite Lin to complete the sacrifice, this palace is very grateful!" The third prince cupped his hands.
Lin Beifan took out the silver note from the small box and slapped it twice in his hand, the sound was very clear and pleasant.
This is a lot of money. With Lin Beifan's current official position, he has spent his whole life in the court, and the salary he earned may not reach this amount.
However, Lin Beifan said with an embarrassed expression: "His Royal Highness, the third prince, I have seen your intentions! But to be honest, with this amount of money, it is very difficult for me to do things for you!"
The third prince and the old minister looked at each other, secretly thinking that this person is really greedy, and even 300,000 taels cannot satisfy his appetite.
The third prince's face was a little gloomy, and the old minister asked, "Lin Jijiu, how much do you want?"
Lin Beifan raised a finger: "It should be 10,000 taels anyway!"
The third prince and the old minister: "Fuck!"
10,000 taels, you really speak up!
The old minister said in a deep voice: "Lin Jijiu, your request is a bit too much! We just let you release the water, let us Da Yan win by luck, and we don't have to pay anything. Is 300,000 not enough?"
"Master Wang, what you said is very light!" Lin Beifan sneered: "Do you know how much I will lose if I lose the Yanwu battle?"
"I would like to hear the details!" said the old minister.
"After today's events, this official's reputation is already at its peak, and his reputation has spread far and wide! At this time, it is time to make a breakthrough and make further progress, but if I unfortunately lose the game, then my reputation will plummet and become laughing stock!"
"It's equivalent to sacrificing the reputation I finally built up to fulfill your great reputation!"
"As the saying goes, money is like dung, and reputation is worth a thousand pieces of gold!" Lin Beifan shouted, "I sacrificed my own reputation to fulfill your great reputation. Could it be that only 300,000 taels can make up for it?"
"This..." The third prince and the old minister looked at each other.
"Furthermore, in addition to the reputation, the future of this official is also affected!"
Lin Beifan threw down the silver notes in his hand and said while pouring wine: "These days, this official has made a lot of contributions to the court! Now the time is ripe, as long as the battle between Yan and Wu can be won, Your Majesty will be delighted. , the officials are happy, the people are excited, and the officials will definitely be promoted!"
"I am now a fourth-rank official of the imperial court. If I go up one level, I will be a third-rank official of the imperial court. It can be called an important official of the imperial court! His Royal Highness Third Prince, Lord Wang, if it is you, I am willing to pay for this mere 300,000 taels. Give up this great future?"
The two were shocked again: "Ah this..."
If it was them, they would definitely not want to!
If you can become a third-rank official of the court, what is the 300,000 taels?
Becoming a third-rank official means a higher position and greater power. Isn't it easy to make money?
As the so-called three years of Qing Zhifu, 100,000 snowflakes of silver!
Even a fourth-rank prefect can get 100,000 taels of silver in just three years!
Third-rank court officials, isn't it easier?
"Lin Jijiu, are you really going to be promoted again?" Mr. Wang couldn't help asking.
"Of course, why did this official lie to you?" Lin Beifan looked unhappy.
"Congratulations Lin for offering wine!" The old minister cupped his hands and said enviously.
It was like he struggled for most of his life, his hair turned white, and then he climbed down to the court and became an important official of the court.
The other party is ready to become a third-rank official at a young age, how can he not be envied?
Lin Beifan sighed: "Don't congratulate, it's not something to be happy about!"
"You're all promoted, aren't you happy?" The third prince and the old minister were stunned.
Lin Beifan sighed again, and said with a melancholy face: "Of course, the promotion speed is too slow! Like before, I was promoted by one level basically every month, and the speed has been very stable! Now, after two It’s been so many months, and it’s only been nearly three months since I was promoted to one level, and it’s not as good as before, so I’m a little embarrassed to speak!”
The third prince and the two were shown their faces, and the whole person was not well!
You know, that is a third-rank official, a real court official, trusted by the emperor, in charge of power, and can influence national policy with every word and deed, how can it be so easy to ascend?
You can accomplish such an achievement in three months, is it still too slow?
Are you embarrassed to speak?
really really...
It's maddening!
The three princes are both a little unhappy!
At this moment, Lin Beifan waved his hand: "Forget it, let's not mention these sad things!"
The third prince and the old minister: "..."
"Let's get down to business and continue talking about the Yanwu War!"
Lin Beifan said plausibly: "The battle between Yanwu and Wu is related to the reputation and future of this official! You only paid 300,000 taels, and there is still a future for this official to sacrifice his reputation. Is it possible? Besides, I am short of this 300,000 yuan. two?"
The three princes looked at each other again.
300,000 taels, you do not lack, but we do not have more money for you.
"Lin Jijiu, Ben Gong thinks that you still accept the silver taels obediently, and serve us honestly!"
The third prince said with a hint of temper: "You know, you are one of our people! If your identity is leaked, your splendid future and glory and wealth will be wiped out! Can the great martial arts hold you?"
Lin Beifan sneered and said with a sneer, "How dare you threaten me? Your Royal Highness, the third prince, you are too naive. You go out now and expose my identity. Do you think others believe in you or in me?"
"Go tell this to Her Majesty the Empress. Do you think she will believe me, a loyal and good minister who has made many contributions to the Great Martial Arts, or you, a sinister prince of an enemy country?"
The three princes were speechless.
Looking at Lin Beifan's proud face, he said solemnly, "But we have evidence!"
"What evidence?"
"At the beginning, we spent a lot of money to obtain the manufacturing method of large balloons and hovercraft from you. This manufacturing method is the proof! As long as you compare it with your handwriting, you will be speechless!" The third prince smiled proudly.
With a puff, Lin Beifan spit out the wine and laughed: "Haha..."
"What are you laughing at?" the third prince asked unhappily.
"To actually threaten me with a drawing of the manufacturing method, it's so funny, I'm dying of laughter!" Lin Beifan laughed.
"Is there anything wrong?"
"His Royal Highness, the third prince, do you think I didn't think about the consequences when I did these things? The drawings I gave you are completely different in writing! You want to threaten me with this, it's too taken for granted, it's ridiculously naive !Ha ha……"
The third prince was very upset, black lines appeared on his face, and his heart was full of anger.
If he wasn't in the territory of Dawu, he would have wanted someone to pull this disrespectful person out and chop it up!
"Okay, okay, everyone is their own, don't hurt the peace!"
The old minister finally stood up and acted as a peacemaker: "Lin Jijiu, His Highness was impulsive and said some nonsense just now, don't take it to your heart! The old man punished himself for three cups, and you don't care about the villain!"
Saying that, he poured three cups in a row, and his face changed color.
"It's still Lord Wang who knows the basics, please!" Lin Beifan returned a glass of wine.
"Lin Jijiu, after careful consideration by this old man, if you say 10,000 taels, it's only 10,000 taels! I'll trouble you, Lord Jijiu tomorrow!"
The third prince was anxious, pulled the other party to a corner, and whispered: "Master Wang, how can we have so many silver taels?"
The old minister smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, it's okay to not give it now! You were so impulsive just now that you offended Lin Beifan. What if he holds a grudge and kills the Quartet tomorrow? We really can't afford to lose!"
The third prince was full of confusion: "But we don't have that much money..."
"It's still there! As long as you can win the battle of Yanwu, what's the point of losing some money?"
The third prince thought about it for a while, finally made up his mind, and nodded: "Sir Wang is very true!"
So they walked back and promised 10,000 taels.
But Lin Beifan was still very unhappy: "10,000 sent me away? Beautiful! You threatened me just now, I'm very unhappy, I have to pay more!"
The three princes and two people: "Fuck!".
